Chapter 1234: Chapter 1234: Why Suppress Rong Yan
“But the principle is the same,” he said, meeting Zhong Yuye’s gaze. “It’s all about protecting those we must.”
“You…” Zhong Yuye wanted to ask who he was protecting, but ultimately, he did not voice the question.
Instead, Qin Jun revealed a bit, “Someone you don’t know, honestly, I haven’t met her either, but I still need to protect her because she is our family’s treasure. Etched in the bones of every one of us, something to be protected with our lives!”
The Chu Family is protective of their own.
He is from the Chu Family, and even though he had never met his distant cousin, he agreed with what Jiang Chenyue had said.
Li Shengxiao was the fiancé they had arranged for Xixi; unless their precious treasure no longer wanted him, no one else should even think about touching him!
He didn’t dislike Rong Yan, and even for Zhong Yuye’s sake, he was willing to let Rong Yan off the hook. But a lesson must be given, regardless of whose face it might concern!
He glanced at Zhong Yuye, who seemed to be contemplating his words, then resumed his usual harmless appearance, with a curl at the corner of his lips, “You just received a call and told me not to mess with Li Shengxiao. Was that call from him? Was he looking for me?”
His question was phrased as an uncertainty, but spoken with certainty.
Zhong Yuye had many questions, but given his relationship with Qin Jun, which wasn’t close enough to share everything, Qin Jun’s willingness to reveal so much was already quite generous. Asking too much between men could be excessive.
“Yes, he has asked to meet you in half an hour at Water Pavilion Room 001.”
“Ah, looks like the bill collector has arrived.”
Half an hour later, Li Shengxiao arrived on time and pushed open the door of the Water Pavilion room. Qin Jun was already leisurely seated there, waiting for him.
“What kind of wind blew today, Mr. Li? Do you have time to meet with a minor character like me?”
“Winter wind.”
Winter wind?
Qin Jun paused for a second, then realized, and exaggeratedly hugged his arms, as if rubbing them for warmth, “It is indeed a bit cold.”
He waved to call a waiter over, “Turn down the air conditioning a bit, I don’t want to catch a cold.”
“Yes, Mr. Qin.”
The waiter adjusted the air conditioning up a few degrees as he requested.
As soon as Li Shengxiao sat down, he directly ordered him, “Leave.”
The waiter, aware of his surroundings, said nothing and closed the door for the two of them without further ado.
Water Pavilion was one of Capital City’s high-end consumption venues. The room, true to its name, had antique charm with sandalwood redwood furniture that exuded taste and reflected an elegant demeanor.
Unfortunately, Qin Jun didn’t like this style, which he found lifeless and lacking vitality; he saw it as nothing more than pretentious, with no aesthetic appeal!
He twirled the teacup in his hand, sized like his palm and painted with an ink-spattered lotus pond. The pale pink and ink colors added embellishments, making it look more like an art piece than a piece of teaware.
Li Shengxiao was silent, and he, too, smiled without any intention of speaking.
Not until a steady voice broke the silence.
“Why are you acquiring shares in KT Entertainment?”
It was then that he lifted his eyelids, “Everyone says the entertainment business is lucrative. I wanted to get involved without starting from scratch, so acquiring a few companies is pretty normal.”
“Heh, you think that reason will convince me?” Li Shengxiao asked.
Qin Jun sat up straight, calmly and confidently replied, “Why wouldn’t I believe it? I’ve already made the acquisitions, how could they be fake?”
Li Shengxiao’s eyes narrowed slightly, “It seems Mr. Qin is still playing dumb with me. Let me rephrase the question, why are you suppressing Rong Yan in the company?”
